Not sure where the > expected values come from. They come from the interrupt override ACPI table and if not supplied then irq 0-15 is preset with default values, which are type=edge and polarity=high, i.e. the opposite of what the failing driver wants. The ACPI table lacks an override entry for IRQ7. I looked at one of the dmesg files in that github thread and that has overrides: [ 0.111674] ACPI: INT_SRC_OVR (bus 0 bus_irq 0 global_irq 2 dfl dfl) [ 0.111681] ACPI: INT_SRC_OVR (bus 0 bus_irq 9 global_irq 9 low level) [ 0.111688] ACPI: IRQ0 used by override. [ 0.111692] ACPI: IRQ9 used by override. IRQ7 should have a corresponding entry as IRQ9 has: https://github.com/linux-surface/acpidumps/blob/4da0148744164cea0c924dab92f45842fde03177/surface_laptop_4_amd/apic.dsl#L178 Subtable Type : 02 [Interrupt Source Override] Length : 0A Bus : 00 Source : 07 Interrupt : 00000007 Flags (decoded below) : 000F Polarity : 3 Trigger Mode : 3 > Sachi can probably walk you through this a bit better as she's the one > who tracked this down. See also [1, 2] and following comments. Impressive detective work! Sachi, can you please try the hack below to confirm the above? It's not meant to be a solution, but it's the most trivial way to validate this. I'm pretty sure that Windows on Surface does not care about the PIC at all. Whether that's on purpose to safe power or just because Windows ignores the PIC completely by now does not matter at all. No idea how that repeated poking on the PIC makes it come alive either and TBH, I don't care too much about it simply because Linux is able to cope with a missing PIC as long as the ACPI tables are correct. I'm way too tired to think about a proper solution for that problem and I noticed another related issue in that dmesg output: [ 0.272448] Failed to register legacy timer interrupt It's not a problem which causes failures, but it's related to the missing PIC. Needs some more thoughts with brain awake...
